Lin Yang-min

Lin Yang-min (Chinese: 林央敏; pinyin: Lín Yāngmǐn; born 1955) is a Taiwanese author and poet.

Lin's body of work totals over twenty published volumes of novels, short stories, poems, essays and criticism.

A number of his poems, including "Never Disregard Taiwan", have been set to music by Taiwanese composer Tyzen Hsiao.

His treatment of taboo subjects such as the White Terror under Chiang Kai-shek led to his works being officially banned by the Kuomintang government from 1987 to 1989.

Today his works from the 1980s are considered landmarks in the Taiwanese literature movement.
